I've been meaning to make good use of this thread for some time now and am finally taking the initiative (along with Mandy) to do so. We're really just hoping to share the things we admire the most, whether it be videos, music, quotes, etc. Hopefully this will create topics for conversation in a very quiet forum as of late.

This past year I have really tried to make it a point to find more music to dance to, and it is not until now that I can say I feel comfortable with my dance library. The most recent jam is from the workshop weekend that Peter Strom and Naomi Uyama held at Jawaahir. Naomi played this song about 3 to 4 times to practice, and I ended up humming it all day long.

It is amazing how a fetching melody can become an ear-bug, one you can't get it out of your ear.

I loved the "Time" clip with Frankie dancing, and the dated cadence of the speech of the announcer reminded me so of my youth when similar speech was over-talked in short subjects shown in theaters between the two films on double-feature nights. Talk about nostalgia.

P.S. For another ear-bug, listen to Kat Edmonson's rendition of "Summertime". Terry found it on the web, and has played it often at LNS. it's taken at dirge tempo, but people like it and dance to it.
